| Reverse description | A coiled five-clawed imperial dragon is depicted at centre, shown in profile amid stylized cloud scrolls with a flaming pearl before it, rendered in the conventional late Qing mechanical engraving style. Chinese ideograms reading 'Made in the reign of Guangxu' arc across the upper portion of the field. The English transliteration legend 'TAI-CHING-TI-KUO COPPER COIN.' runs along the lower periphery in Latin characters, reflecting the export-oriented bilingual convention adopted for Qing machine-struck copper coinage of this period. The rim is plain and slightly raised. |
